Hi everyone
i am creating a game to IOS and android, and know i want to create the sound for the game but i need a good program, and i want to learn a program that can be used to create normal musics to use like a music producter / DJ. i know some good programs, like ableton, garage band, but i want to know more opinions and helps about more programs and about this programs that i said, if is good or not, etc..

Thank you :)
 
If you need just the basics I am guessing you'll be fine with Garageband. Ableton is an advanced DAW that will require you to spend more time figuring out than something as simple as Garageband. Unless you have a ton of time to devote to reading manuals and learning I recommend staying away from any of the more serious DAW programs aka Ableton, Logic, Reason, Sonar, etc.

Use GarageBand until you have a very good reason that you can clearly state for not using GarageBand.

Then later if you find a limit (if you ever do) upgrade to Apple's "Logic Express". Logic will open GB projects so you will not loos any of your old work when you upgrade. Logic comes with some good virtual instruments like samplers and analog synths. Start with GB as it is much easier to learn
